[0016] It should be noted that the present invention is composed of an arc-shaped slide cup-distributing mechanism 1 and a manipulator 2. A cup sorting machine is used to be fixedly connected to the arc track 12 of the device. The cup sorting machine discharges the sorted cup bodies, and the cup bodies enter the arc track 12 connected to the cup sorting machine with the cup mouth facing upward. The cup bodies move forward along the track under the force of the vacuum air pressure blowing forward. The arc track can prevent the cup bodies from getting stuck, and the arc track helps the movement of the cup bodies. When the cup enters the arc track, when the low material level detection device 14 continuously detects the presence of cup bodies, the signal is input to the PLC control system, and the PLC controls the operation of the material-distributing cylinder 16 to rub the continuous cup bodies apart to prevent the cup bodies from stacking. Then the lifting cylinder 22 extends out, controls the first vacuum suction cup 24 to pass vacuum, and sucks the cup body. After the cup body is sucked, the lifting cylinder 22 retracts, and the rotating cylinder 23 controls the rotation of the grabbing fixed plate, and the cup body turns to the top of the mold plate. The lifting cylinder 22 extends again, and the first vacuum suction cup 24 breaks the vacuum to allow the cup body to enter the mold plate. While the cup body is placed in the mold plate, the second vacuum suction cup 25 passes vacuum, and the operation logic just now is repeated, and the cup body is quickly and efficiently placed in the mold plate; when the main machine stops, the cup grabbing mechanism will stop running, and when the cup bodies in the arc slide rail 12 accumulate to the high material level detection device 13, the signal is fed back to the PLC, and the front cup sorting machine stops running.
